About Our Organization

The LTI Group of companies produces virtually an unlimited variety of glass and polycarbonate laminates for residential, commercial and industrial use.

LTI Laminate Products
 

With active divisions in key industries, such as automotive, marine, aircraft, security and detention and commercial architecture we continue to push the envelope of technology and design and remain on the cutting edge of state-of-the-art materials and methodologies. 60,000 Square Feet of production floor space remain in motion in order to build and maintain a new standard of client support and access.

LTI Capabilities

With consistent growth since opening its doors more than a decade ago, The LTI Group has kept pace by continually adding and updating equipment and staff. What began as a single lamination company in the mid-nineties has expanded into a multi-location operation with two full capacity factories and a third set to come online in Q3-08.

Autoclave
Three industrial autoclaves run virtually around the clock to maintain production. The largest of the claving ovens measures 16' long x 8' wide; the largest in the northeast. A 4th clave will be deployed in 3Q-08, and is even larger.
State-of-the-art processing equipment allows for an efficient and high-throughput production environment while maintaining the level of premiere quality which has driven LTI's success and rapid growth.
Large-area glass cutting and polishing machinery make light work of even the most robust glass and laminates. LTI maintains edge-polishing equipment capable of edging 2.0" laminates.

What is Ballistic Glass?

Ballistic Attacks are classified as assaults from handguns, shotguns or rifles. There are two major threats when transparent glazings come under a ballistic attack.

The first is projectile penetration of the glazing. Obviously if the laminate fails the result is often destruction, injury and death.

The second major threat to glass and windows while under a ballistic attack is "Spall". Spalling occurs as shards of glass break away from the rear face (protection side) of a laminate as a result of the impact, becoming projectiles themselves. Significant injuries, loss of vision even death has occurred due to high-spalling laminates.

The LTI Group manufactures three variations of ballistic laminates.

Our LTI-BR series laminate is a "non-spalling" laminate which incorporates a layer of polycarbonate on the "inner" or "protection" side. This layer of polycarbonate is known as a "spall shield".

SPALL SHIELD EXAMPLE

Our LTI-GCP series laminate is a "low-spall" product. The protection side of the laminate is a glass layer bonded with a clear adhesive interlayer to polycarbonate. This configuration, is known as a "glass-clad polycarbonate" laminate and offers superior chemical and abrasion resistance on the protection side as glass is a much harder surface then polycarbonate.

The LTI-BR LC is our Ballistic Privacy™ product. This laminate incorporates the same attack protection of our standard BR line with the added benefit of our LTI Privacy Glass for On-Demand privacy. This product is also an LTI Group exclusive!

LTI Detention Glazing Products

LTI Glass Clad Laminate What is Containment Grade Glass?

A Containment Grade GCP or "Glass Clad Polycarbonate" is used in environments where glazing is required to resist penetration for an extended period of time while still allowing at least limited visibility.
Unlike ballistic laminates which are designed to resist single instantaneous projectile impacts, a containment grade product defends against attacks which are usually premeditated, sustained attacks executed by one or more attacker.

The laminates are designed and constructed with the assumption that the attacker has experience with transparent security glazings and plans to use multiple weapon types.

The following chart identifies just a small portion of containment barrier testing:

LTI Signal Defense

What is Signal Defense and Why Do I Need It?

Signals Defenses® Technology (SD) is a patented, optically clear, Radio Frequency (RF), Infrared (IR) and Ultraviolet (UV) blocking window film, glass or polycarbonate (PC).  Deploying SD Technology to fenestrations will provide privacy/eavesdropping protection, additional security for wireless networks/devices, RF sheltering for equipment and humans with very HIGH solar energy/UV blocking.

Signal Tower

Signal Defense Graphic

The SD2500 Film provides the HIGHEST levels of RF and IR attenuation, meets and exceeds the
requirements of various US Government organizations’ specifications for optically clear RF/IR/UV
attenuating film/optical coatings, especially with respect to IR, and is listed by DoD as an RF/IR Attenuation
film tested to be “beneficial” as Alternative Shielding including TEMPEST Countermeasures.

KEY PRODUCT FEATURES:

· Ultraviolet Transmission (<380nm) <1%
· Infrared Ray Transmission (800-1500nm) <1%
· RF (30Mz-6+GHz) >46 dB
· Thickness (SD2500) >.002 in
· Visible Light Transmission (400 – 780nm) >53%
· Visible Light Reflectance 13%
· Total Solar Energy Rejected 70%
· Shading Coefficient .35
· Solar Heat gain Coefficient .30
